Railroad Charged with Bribing voters.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 23.-Neyer in
the history of Davidson county was there
as much interest taken as in that for the
subscription OF $500. 900 by Davidson
county to the Midland railroad, which
would, had they won the fight, have
passed through Nashville and 100 miles
of the county. Three-fourths majority
being required, it was defeated. The
majority, however, win not be over 500
out of the is, 900 votes polled. Another
election will probably be lad in thirty
days. The Louisville and Nashville rail
roak control all the lines that enter this
city n Trey consequently fought the
question very hard. The Midland peo-
pie claim bribery against the Louisville
and Nashville roa and a lively time is
expected during the coming campaign.

into the graveyard, where, winding the
sheet around his body, he awaited the
coming OF his rival. Meantime Robert

walking down the road, heard sepulchral

and leave the girl on the road, so he
picked a good sized rock, sharp and jag
ged, and let it fly with unerring aim. A
scream of pain from the ghost told that
il was human. Robert ran up to it and
discovered it was his own brother whom
he had so severely punished. The girl
was taken home in wagon in hyster-

his father, bleeding and unconscious,
and Robert is just now the hero of the
~neighborhood for tackling such a for

A nerro.

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 23.-Freeman
Good, a colored man, has distinguished
himself by butting down a woodshed and
keeping up the job after a g named
John Hall had split mis- head open with
an ak. Good has a head like a caunon-
hall. He butted Hall until the latter
thought he would be killed, and he got
the az. Good had previously partly
butted down Halls woodshed, and when
struck with the TX he was engaged in
butting down the remainder Of the shed
Hall, although armed with the az, fled
before Good, but was later arrested AT
Goods instance and discharged by Justice
Miner, his honor remarking that Goods
head was the more dangerous weapon of
the two. 1t has suggested to the local
sports the idea OF a butting match, which
may be arranged.
